On 9 October, the publishers of J. K. Rowling’s Cormoran Strike mysteries took a play from the Harry Potter Mania playbook and posted two excerpts, a prologue and first chapter, from Career of Evil, the third installment in her open-ended seven part series.
Links to the excerpts and my first magical seven thoughts on what is revealed, confirmed, and suggested in misleading fashion in these fascinating preview pieces — to include a woman’s dismembered leg and a Rugby Club called the Saracens — can be found at CormoransArmy.com, my new member’s only weblog devoted to discussion of the Doom Bar Detective’s adventures. Membership is on the house, of course, and if you signed up for the free pdf on Strike I offered in July, you’ve already received a notice of the site’s Grand Opening.
I look forward to seeing you all there for cogitation and speculation about Jo Rowling’s latest!
